Nice work Andy.



Pro Finish Shamoo - (presume that's from Smarter-World?) how are you finding it? I've got some of their Liquid Platinum and the Nielsen Liquid Gold which are both very nice.



How are you finding the Wheel Brightener? I've got some on order with Alex.

Great stuff. I don't know which of the Jag shots look wetter - before or after!

Sounds a bit generous with the Mother-in-law though ( I charge mine a slightly discounted rate ) :D

Awesome job :xyxthumbs I really like the hood shot of the Jag. Those seats are super white!



Nice old skool Adidas and shoe lace job! That's so 1980's Run DMC! I remember when I was a kid everyone wore their shoes like that. :D

The Jaguar and 205 look real smooth, makes me want to touch the screen :nervous: :D



The Astra also looks smart :xyxthumbs

Thanks gents.



Craig - Pro Finish shampoo is spot on for "pre polish" washing - I tend to stick with Sonax, Zymol etc for wash only jobs. It foams up quite a bit, shifts grime really well and sheets pretty good too plus as with most S-W products, it's flippin cheap!



Wheel brightener - better than Wonder Wheels without the fizzy acid effect if that makes sense

The Jag looks fantastic mate.



As does Fivos's 205, need to see it in the flesh.



Top work on both cars as ever.

Rich, the 205 is a minter and it's also decided me on what do wheel-wise as those grey centered wheels look so sweet! There's a South Meet on I think 25 September - you should try to get there mate.
